Getting Ready With Erykah Badu in Thom Browne for CFDA Awards 2024
. Described by the brand, the outfit entailed an “hourglass all-in-one chesterfield, sportcoat, embroidered cardigan, pleated skirt and trouser in black cashmere, 3 ply mohair, wool flannel and silk faille with an oversized jumpsuit suit in black 3 ply mohair with black grosgrain tipping and wingtip pumps in black patent leather.”“I don’t know how to describe it,” she said.
She received word that she was chosen to receive the Fashion Icon award through her agency, The Chambers Group, and was still trying to process it. “It is always good to be recognized by your peers for your art. And I just feel grateful that as an artist I had an opportunity to feel that,” she said.“Everything around me is changing and growing. My style is me. So as I feel and grow and move and change and fail and succeed, it’s always a reflection of what I feel,” she said.“People like Albert Einstein.
In addition to the Thom Browne look at the CFDAs, Badu has worked with many other big name fashion designers – yet named a smaller Brooklyn-based designer when asked what designers inspire her. “His name is Epperson. When I first started as a recording artist, I lived in Brooklyn and he was a designer who was from Brooklyn who was making waves because of his deconstruction and and hanging strings and deliberate symmetrical mistakes, happy mistakes. And I like the fact that he took risks,” Badu said. His approach has always been to feel it with your hands and whatever your hands do.
